Ibanez High Performance RGA42HPT Laser Blue Matte

The Ibanez High Performance RGA42HPT is a modern classic, its sound and aesthetic offering uncomplicated, no-frills quality that will appeal to all levels of guitarist. The laser blue, beautifully contoured body is an instantly recognisable, single-coloured hallmark that is found across the Ibanez range, offering comfort and durability to go with its classic good looks. And the Ibanez High Performance RGA42HPT sounds at least as good as it looks, with a rich tone, impressive sustain and combustible pitch that can be especially suited to high speed, bone-crunching metal, or evocative, earthy blues.

Effortless playability is derived from the slim-profile, roasted maple Wizard III neck on the Ibanez High Performance RGA42HPT, with its 15.7” radius jatoba fingerboard that has a flexible slide and string bend, allowing for long hours of jamming. The balanced RG Nyatoh body, embellished with enticing gold hardware, offers both a rich, resonant tone and a comfortable, easy playing feel, while the luminescent side dot inlays make for an eye-catching look when performing on a dimly lit stage. These comfort-enhancing, user friendly features are perfect for fast playing and indulgent, elongated solos.

The usual high class Ibanez features are evident on the High Performance RGA42HPT, with two DiMarzio Fusion Edge humbucking pickups and 5-way switching that thrive on high output and gain, allowing players to shape tone and ambience across a wide range of styles. With coil tap capabilities, this dynamic sound really enhances the power chords, while the double locking tremolo bridge ensures your tuning stays taut and precise during the most expressive of performances. Amongst the best value of Ibanez’s iconic range, the High Performance RGA42HPT is an ideal guitar for those just starting out on their electric journey, or for seasoned veterans looking to add a little more oomph to their repertoire.
